Description
https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-react-sdk/pull/1307 implements this for Riot Web; iOS should also by default strip GPS info from uploaded images.
(We could also strip out the EXIF rotation metadata at this point and put it in the event itself, so that clients displaying the image can rotate appropriately)
